ZigZag_ND_local

 

 

Procedure ZigZag_ND_local(Re, Pr, alpha: Nusselt, f) returns the local (averaged over a unit cell) Nusselt number and friction factor associated with flow through a zig-zag channel.  Entrance effects are not included - these are local in that they are at a particular location.

 

Inputs:

Re - Reynolds number

Pr - Prandtl number

alpha - angle [degree] or [radian]

 

Outputs:

Nusselt - local Nusselt number

f - local friction factor

 

Notes:

This procedure uses the correlation from Moisseytsev et al. (2020)

 

Example:

$UnitSystem SI Mass J K Pa Radian

alpha=50 [degree]*convert(degree,rad)

Re=1e5

Pr=2

Call zigzag_nd_local(Re, Pr, alpha: Nusselt, f)

 

{Solution:

Nusselt = 388.5

f = 0.0353

}
